"Smart home" Xiaomi 2020

"Smart home" Xiaomi 2020

Today we will tell you about the budget implementation of the “Smart Home” concept. Xiaomi is firmly entrenched in our market, appearing on the market in April 2010, and although only 10 years have passed, it has already become known all over the world. Now it is second only to brands such as Apple, Samsung and Huawei. In 2017, Xiaomi became the first in sales of smartphones in China and already the fifth in the world, and in 2021 the situation will change even more significantly in favor of the “Chinese”.

Xiaomi is known to us to a greater extent for their smartphones and tablets, balanced in price and quality, but this is not the whole list of products that this brand produces. For example, among the company's huge range of products, you can easily find batteries, batteries, vehicles such as hoverboards, electric bicycles, various interactive toys, smart watches and many household items that make life easier for a modern person (electric toothbrushes, "smart" mugs, etc.).

Now one of the most interesting and rapidly gaining popularity of Xiaomi brand gadgets can be called the “smart home” system. Of course, such a system is called so with a stretch, but nevertheless. We propose to consider simple, inexpensive, but interesting devices of this “Smart Home”.

The writer Ray Bradbury has long described the prototype of a "smart home", but only now the author's fantasy has become a reality. A smart home uses high-tech devices and controls all systems in the house: climate control, lighting and security. At the same time, one of the main functions of the system is energy saving and reduction of household problems.

In the assortment of many companies, you can find a “smart home” system, but Xiaomi stands out for its ease of operation and functionality. If you have the Internet, then the problem of distance ceases to be such - the Xiaomi 2020 system can be controlled using a smartphone from anywhere in the world (where there is Wi-Fi).

The Smart Home system consists of a head unit and numerous sensors that monitor almost every aspect of home improvement.

Sensors

The functionality of smart home systems is measured by the number of sensors - the more there are, the higher the performance. Xiaomi 2020 has sensors for every situation.

A big plus in the Xiaomi smart home is that you can divide the purchase of the system into several stages: first, purchase the basic package, and then add the necessary chips.

Shine

In the Xiaomi smart home, the light can be adjusted in different ways. Switches Aqara smart light control set also have high functionality: the light can not only be turned off and on in any part of the house using a smartphone, but also, you can change the level of illumination that suits your mood.


Humidity and temperature

The Mijia Temperature and Humidity Sensor is a module in the traditional Xiaomi style. Like all sensors of this smart home system, it is synchronized via the Mi Smart Home Multifunction Gateway (the main gateway of the system), and also supports ZigBee technology. Compact and lightweight are the main characteristics of the sensor. Size 3.3 cm in diameter, weight - 10 grams. The sensor can be easily attached to any surface with an adhesive layer on the back. But don't let those dimensions fool you, Mijia Temperature and Humidite Sensor is incredibly accurate. As the manufacturers promise, he is mistaken by no more than 0.3 degrees, if it concerns temperature, the error in determining the humidity is 3%. As soon as the sensor “senses” a violation of the temperature or humidity limits that you have set, it will immediately report it. And the main gateway, if necessary, will give an indication to the outlet and turn on the air conditioner, fan or heating system.


Air pollution

Air pollution has become a serious problem in the 21st century. This is especially important in China, large cities, for example, Kiev was no exception this year, when there was a large-scale fire in the Chernobyl zone and a suspension of settled radioactive particles was raised in smoke and went to the city. Under these circumstances, the SmartMi PM 2.5 Air Detector becomes a necessity.

A contamination analyzer is a device that detects the presence of dust particles, even if their presence is not more than 0.3 microns. The indicator has three levels: green - the air is fresh and there is nothing to be afraid of, orange and red - you should be afraid, the concentration of harmful particles may be exceeded.

Such a sensor can work continuously for about 3 hours and be used outdoors.


Motion Sensor

The motion sensor is one of the main functions of a smart home. The Xiaomi 2020 system includes the Mijia Move Detector, a cylinder that is equipped with infrared sensors and an optical lens with recognition accuracy. Action distance - 7m, viewing angle - 170, reaction speed - 15 ms. In order to attach the sensor, it is enough to put or glue it on the surface. You can also use multiple sensors simultaneously to monitor an entire room. The motion analyzer will warn you if someone enters the house by turning on the light or, on the contrary, turning it off if there is no one in the room. There is also a progressive and very practical AJAX system on our market, but the system from XIAOMI will save your budget, since it costs much less, and the result is the same.


Patency sensor

For those who are fond of houseplants, there is a Smart Flower and Plant Monitor (Huahuacaocao) - it measures light, temperature, soil moisture, and gives care tips. All you have to do to make the sensor work is install the app on your phone and insert the probe into the ground.

Among other products, Xiaomi offers a smart pot. It significantly facilitates the care of plants, determining the acidity, temperature, light, and also has special nozzles where you can pour up to 2.2 liters of water.


Sleep sensor

The Lunar Smart Sleep Sensor will monitor the quality of your sleep. It is enough to put it on a pillow and enjoy dreams that will give soothing sounds that the sensor emits. The charge of such a sensor is enough for 3 days.


Dual sensors

For safety, you should install door sensors, such as Mijia Door and Window Sensor. This device works on the principle of sensitivity to changes in the magnetic field. In case of uninvited guests, Mijia Door and Window Sensor will give a signal to the security panel or turn on the alarm.


Gas sensor and smoke sensor

If we talk about safety, the gas and smoke sensor will not interfere. Mijia Honeywell Gas Alarm will help to avoid gas leakage. The device detects a leak and reports it using the head gateway. The Xiaomi Mijia Honeywell fire sensor works on the same principle. Even a small amount of smoke is enough for this device to signal a danger. Here is an irreplaceable device, if your kitchen is equipped with gas equipment or your own boiler, believe me, your safety and the safety of loved ones is expensive!


Water leak sensor

We recommend the Aqara Water Sensor to prevent water leakage. The sensor works in the same way as other parts of the smart home system through the head gateway. As soon as the water level exceeds 0.5 mm - the device immediately notifies you using an audible signal or sends a message to your device. In summary, let's say that this sensor is indispensable for those who have elderly people in the house or have a system of water floor heating.


General controller

Mijia Multifunctional Gatewau is the main component of the "Smart Home" system, it organizes the operation of all devices that are installed in the house and connected directly to your smartphone. Even with an unstable Internet, the gateway will not stop working and will continue to perform its function.

The main gateway with the built-in light sensor can carry out function of a night light, with a possibility of a choice of color of illumination. In stock 16 million shades!

In addition, the Mijia Multifunctional Gateway can act as an alarm clock and act as a radio.


Switches and sockets

With the help of Xiaomi smart sockets, you will be able to monitor all electrical appliances in the house and no longer have to worry about whether the iron has been turned off! Sensor with the possibility of setting the timer on / off remotely. The socket can withstand a voltage of 250 V, a load of 2.2 kW, the operating temperature range is 0 - 40 ° C. The most interesting thing is that at the time of writing, the cost of the switch fluctuated around 1000 UAH, which is comparable to the cost of top designer sockets and switches of well-known German and French brands.


"Smart" cap

The smart Aqara Intelligent Curtain will help you to open and close curtains at a distance. You will be able to set a timer and the curtains will open just before you wake up.


Universal remote control

You may be scared to think that you need to carry several controls to control all of these gadgets. However, the Mi Smart Home Universal Remote Controller will be a universal helper in controlling all these sensors. Range - 20 m, dimensions - 10x10x2.5 cm, weight - 88 g.
